Ball of Cactus Lodge

The sixth annual ball given in the Masonic hall Friday evening. by Cactus Lodge No. 94, B. of L. F., deserves es- pecisl mention. No ball gwen within the past several years scored 6 greater success either socially or financially. The committee men to whom much pralse is due, worked unoeRsingly. Time and expense were given DO con slderstion-success was the end sought and gained. Before the bell tapped at 9:2O, for the grand march, the hall was comfortably filled. Msny of the best people Tn town being in attendance. The hall was finely drsped with ever green, flags, head and colorsd signal light, which happily with the gay dancers, produced s most pleasing and striking effect Competent judges de- clared that never before in the history of the hall had 1t been so tastily and Brtistically decorated. The music fur nished by the HuRchucs band under the leadership Of Prof. J. F. Kreyer psrtoOk more of the nature of \ concert than a dance and was highly spplsuded by the fortunate ones present. Of the supper too much cannot be said-i. was com. pleteness ID itself. Mir. Wm. Siewert was the provider and his lsrier knew no end to the good things il contained. The supper was served in the banquet hall and 15 couples the whole number present, were at once seated with ample room remaining for many more. It was four o'clock this morning before the merry makers tired but happy, sought their homes ID peace, expressing their best wishes to Cactus Lodge for llke return of the occasion.

New Enterpr;ss.

Mf. Jacob Martini is building a mod est sized but well appointed brewery, near his residence south of the round house, and when it is completed he will make an article Of beer that will probs- ply cut of all necessity of importing the beverage. A large stone cellar is now under construction by Mir. Russell, and in due time the substantial structure will be in readiness to begin the brew. Arrangements are already made for the services of H skilled brewer, and the very best quality of pure and wholesome beer will be made. The water supply is derived from the railroad tanks.
 At present NIT. Martini is handling the Chicago beer, and his bottling works are m the rear of his residence. He has secured quite 6 large trade for this article and 1t IS rapidly growing in fR- vor with the people as a wholesome drink. His delivery wagon is kept tdsy at all hours of the day m supplying the family trade alone, which is good evidence of the excellence of the article.
 Mir, Martini has also beautified his residence m many ways, and hIs lawn IS filled with trees and shrubs that adorn the grassy plat and give & very cheerful snd homelike appearance to the abode. He has created 8 model home and set an example for others to follow if they care for their own pleas. ures and the appearance of the city. NIT. Martini is indeed an enterprising citizen.

A New Strike.

Nearly every week records a new strike In some of the various mines in the Olive camp, and the miners who are working in the hope that blind luck will reward their industry. occasionally meet with such sudden change m their for tunes that it is more like strange dream than reality, even when they actually jingle the golden coin in their worthy hands.
 The news has inst reached town of an other new strike in that camp that Is probably of more importance than any former development yet made. es it is believed that the mother-vein has been tapped and the mystery of the curious formation IS about tO be solved. 1t is now hardly two weeks since Mir. John Bottegot and his partner took a six. months lease on the Wandering mine. from its owner, Sam kingley. At that time there was DO sign of ore m any pay ing quantities in the twelve foot shaft, and there was no temptation to continue work in it. The lessees wanted to be- gin n new shaft on another part of the claim, but they were not permitted to do so. They therefore sunk the old shafts deeper and grew dis coursged, but finally concluded to drift ID search of better evidence of he ex- istence of an ore shoot. They followed the seam for more thRn twenty feet from the shaft and a day or two ago they cut ledge thirty inches wide of solid ore that averages from 100 to l60 ounces per ton ID silver. They could hardly believe their own senses at first. but as the importance of their develop ment dswned upon them they realized that it only rested with their individual efforts to break down the thin barriers between their present poverty and fu- ture Bfiiuence, and they now have two shifts sI work and will put on all the miners they can find room for. Their lease will run for five and one-balf months yet and in that short time they Tiil take out a very moe little fortune. There is scarcely 6 question as to the existence of a very large body of ore from the point at which T was encoun- tered, extending in length as well as depth, and the :Wanderings strike has already become the wonder of the camp.

Taxing Mining Property.

In view of the fact that the Arizona legislature is agitstinR the propriety of taxing mining property, and especially the proceeds of mines. the iolloEing opinion Of the Colorado Supreme Court delivered on January 29th, may b. O. interest. It was delivered ID cCmpli- snce with 6 request oi the State Lesis- lature, that it WAS legal Tor the present; Legislature to levy tax upon mining property. The Legislature of 1879 exempted mining property irem taxa ton, the object being Co stimulate the industry and investment Of capital. l; has been claimed that the Legislature of lSS3. m an act, the purpUf. of which was partly concealed, eXteoding tue period of exemption until lSyJ S yeral bills have been introduced into the present Legislature to tax the mine-. but all of them have been held back Co await the decision Of the Supreme Court on the above point. The leading mine operators of the State say they d5 not object to tax upon their property. but they aSs in a qUandaTy to know how an equitable one can be { vied For n week past the principal mine owners and operators of Leadville have been holding daily meetings Co decide upon what manner of tax they shall pre- fer to become a law. Three plans are proposed.
 l. To tax the surface ground Gt SO much an acre ani the surface improve ueDts.
 ?. A tax upon ihs value of the out put.
 8. A tax upon the number of sons without reference 10 the value of the ore.
 It Is probable ths; the Legislature will pass a law to conform to the views of the LeadyIlle minors.

fhsif shiftiess System of Cultivation The Unrary Foreign Investor.

Inc IuWarN Foreign AuNtalor.
 Noticing the shiftless system of cultiva- tion prevalent among the Mexican plant ers. which could not help contrasting with the clean cultivation of the Texas and Arkansas farmers, I inquired of a well-infOrmed resident;
 sWhy would it not be good scheme for some shrewd American to come down here, secure plantation, and work it &C., eortiing to northern methods With this marvellous soil, abundance of water, skill fuI cultivation, and high prices of the staple. there would be fortune in it."
 There are almost insuperable obstacles in the way he replied. In the first place, thev would not know the language, which balks many an enterprise undertaken by Americans. Again, nearly all this sec ton Is owned by a few rich bOndholders, who are unwilling to part with any DOT ton of their estates, and, being very con seryatiye and content with their present revenues. do not become entangled sO as to need to sell them. The rent list of one of these lords of the soil amounts to S95, UJO annually. But grant that you can S. cure a fOOthOld and have plantation, where will you get your labOrersi On one side you would have a hacienda with 2.OOO employees, on the other, one with 100, but you could not engage one Of them whatever wages you offered. They are all iu debt Co the planters, and should they desert and go to you, the jefe pOlit- icO would soon bring them tO their senses. This k Mexico, and this-its richest soil k for the Mexicans, and the unwary in- vestOr would soon be made to knowit
 There was much force and some reason in his remarks. Mexicans are glad to have foreign capital invest in mines, for their value is uncertain, and nine out of ten in- Testments prove dead losses, and they know it But a nook in this farther cor ner of Gods earth is another matter. Once planted and rooted, and the for eigner can maintain himself ever better than the MeXicans. The latter fears his competition, and naturally prefers tO exclude him utterly from his Eden. The rich haciendadOs live in comparative sim plicity, content with themselves and their surroundings Unlike the American Cruasus the wealthy Mexican thinks that enough Is enough, and having a cOmpe- tence cares only tO quietly enjoy it- Not given tO travel. his family does not imbibo expensive foreign fashions and notions. Far removed from large cities the diver sions of town life do not disturb his tran qUillity nor waste his resources. lt Is nos easy tO become dissipated when you have Go ride twenty-five miles Co see your next door neighbOr But whatever inclination covets and money can buy that the cotton planters of the ~Laguna- have and enjoy. They are said tO be almost royal in their hospitality to each Other.-MeXicO Cor. Cleveland Leader
